A mom, 40-something, from Sydney in Australia is gobsmacked after learning she has won the largest lottery prize ever won in Australia – a total of AU $107 million, which is worth around $76.7 million in US dollars with Powerball. The woman, who has chosen to keep her identity anonymous told the story of how she bought her ticket online using some randomly chosen numbers – which happened to be: 20, 18, 33, 22, 11, 26, 4 as well as the Powerball number 9. Originally, she was led to believe that she had won $107,000 which she was over the moon about anyway and said “Oh my God, $107,000! That’s amazing” but after being contacted by lottery officials, they told her that it was actually a prize worth far more... $107 million, to which she said was such a large amount of money she couldn’t believe it!

Amy Lanigan, from Evergreen Park in Illinois has had a very memorable trip to Michigan after finding out she is the sole winner of a $500,000 prize with the Michigan Lottery! Lanigan bought her ticket, which was a Triple Bonus Cashword instant game from Speedway gas station, located at 635 East 16 th street in Evergreen Park (South of Chicago). The reason she bought the ticket, was because her and her husband were on their way to help out his parents, who were selling a home in Harbour Springs. On the journey her husband purchased a few tickets for her and they actually won some money. So, they thought, why not take their chances and use the small winnings to buy some more lottery tickets to try their luck? I’m sure they don’t regret that decision now, as Amy scratched off the ticket whilst her husband drove and she said she almost fell out of her car seat when she saw all the matching words on the scratch card.
